What's the Re of the different coil configs on the ICONs? Also, when should they be back in stock?

I have an Icon 15 in 3.5 cubes tuned to 34hz. It is being powered by a JBL GTO 1201.II amp that puts out 1100 watts at 2ohms. When I turn it up I get a smell that almost smells like paint. The gain is set a lil past half way. I notice some people on the forum are powering pairs of the 15s with like 1500 watts from a Kicker amp. Am I setting the gain too high? What could that smell be? Should I turn down the gain on my amp and turn up the sub setting on my deck? The deck I have is the Alpine CDA-9886.

How much would it cost to recone an ssa icon 15"???? thanks in advance

does anyone know if the icon will preform well in a 3 cu ft. ported box? 3 cubes is all i can fit in my CRX since i want to keep the sub covered. any input would be great

LIKE THE TITLE SAYS

(1) 10" ICON in an '03 Mustang Convertible 10" ICON 10D2 VID - CLICK IT (2) 15" ICONs in an '07 Santa Fe Limited 15" ICON 15D2 VID - CLICK IT

I documented the complete build from start to finish for this enclosure since folks wanted to see it, all 65 pictures worth. The only pic's I didn't take were of the enclosure with carpet, the camera batteries crapped out. http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm184/m...verado%20build/ You'll have to view the album start from the last page backwards, it just happened to upload the pics in that order.

Where can I get a new surround for a 12" icon? How much are they? Will it be hard to replace witht he fact that they have a paper cone?

Title says it all everyone be prepared!

would 900wts at 2ohm be ok to match up with a 15"icon in a fisher ported box

are the Icon series more spl setup? When are they coming back in stock? Which of the sundown amps would work better on a 15 the 1500 or 1000?

what enclosure size do you suggest for a icon 12 sealed off 1000 watts? i think i am going to go with 1.2 but do i add polyfill or no?

Mark is working on expanding the SSA rides page for people who own ICONs. If you do, please post up a few pictures and specs if you want so we can build up the page.

Ok, decided to throw this 10D2 in my truck to demo at a show tomorrow. Wanted to go with a really flat response, so had Fallen from ROE throw together a box design in a pinch tuned @ 31hz. 24.75in^2 or port. Volume after displacement it's 1.25ft^3. This is the first time i've really played with the ICON in this respect. Absolutley love it.

Well I just got my box today. Here is my whole setup so far. NEW PICS ON PAGE 2! All kicker wiring JL e6450 amp Soundstream pca2000d amp Boston acoustic sl60 components in the front infinity kappa 6x8 coaxials in the rears And my 2 NEW ICONS! There wired to 2 ohm so there getting 750 a piece on the amp

Glad I went down and picked up the 12 from you today, sounds louder than 3 P3's on a T3000.1, even with the prefab box. I am getting a box designed, will you be able to build it for me if I give you the sketch-up??

Thanks Denim for the spec's on the subwoofers, I was able to use the Icon 12 for the design, it fits just fine with no problems.

I got an icon 12 recently, it's in a sealed box, and I Love how low it goes. If I really turn my radio up it gets Loud and sounds clean. Thing is I think I'd like some more output, but still want it to get nice and low and sound good. I listen to mostly industrial, a bit of triphop, and rarely metal and rock, what would you recommend as far as a ported box goes?

So i have 2 icon 10s sitting around at home. Not using them. But my car won't support an amp for two. So i am going to build a box for just 1. I was talking with a friend who builds boxes all the time. And we were talking about a box for one of them. I was thinking sealed since i listen to all types of music but i like to get loud too. But he seems to think that a 7th order box would be best. What do u guys think? Has anyone but an icon in a 7th order box? J/W thanks guys

well I got my 2 15" icons running off a zx2500. How well can they take it on clean power? I can beat mine for about a good 10 min then they start to give a little smell out. I have the bass boost off and gains only set 1/4 of the way. On one song today I even heard it pop. Looked like from over excursion or something ( if thats what makes them pop). I am getting a buddy of mine that owns a shop to see what he thinks and if the smell is the voice coils.

Okay I have a icon 15 and inverted with the basket outside of the box and today as I was getting outta my truck, I touched the magnet and it was considerably warm.., s this normal or is the sub getting too hot?

well after along time of driving my brand new truck around with a ton of weight in the back, two monster 15's and a huge box, batts, amps, etc...I decided it was time to get back to a single 12". Plus with John having his truck so close for demo's, and that truck being above and beyond loud IMO, thought it was time. Found some great looking prefab's locally here in Phoenix, so decided to try one out. Here are the specs of the box. Width - 18.250" Height - 16.000" Depth - 16.000" Internal Volume = 1.769 ft^3 Tuned @ 37.089 hz Port Area = 25.8in^2 Everything seems about right with this box ecept the tuning is a little high, but all and all I am really amazed by the SQ …

Hey guys figured I'd go ahead and show you my setup, check it out here: http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=314357

first video on the new subs. Still not available just yet. Still doing tons of daily testing in my truck and in the blazer. Here's a few shots of the subs and people's reactions to it. Build log for this truck is here: http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=16207 xm7WLqN_vr4
